How to Set Up a Message-Of-The-Day

Edit the message-of-the-day file, /etc/motd, to include announcements or inquiries to all users
of a system when they log in. Use this feature sparingly, and edit
this file regularly to remove obsolete messages.

Note - Starting with the Solaris 10 8/07 release, there is no longer two separate
hosts files. The /etc/inet/hosts file is the single hosts file that contains both
IPv4 and IPv6 entries. You do not need to maintain IPv4 entries in
two hosts files that always require synchronization. For backward compatibility, the /etc/inet/ipnodes file
is replaced with a symbolic link of the same name to the
/etc/inet/hosts file. For more information, see the hosts(4) man page.

(Optional) If you are using a name service, change the system's host name in
the hosts file.

Add the packages for the locale you want to install on your
system using the localeadm command.

The -a option and a locale identifies the locale that you want to
add. The -d option and a device identifies the device containing the locale
packages you want to add. To add the Central European region (ceu) to
your system, for example:

# localeadm -a ceu -d /net/install/latest/Solaris/Product
locale/region name is ceu
Devices are /net/install/latest/Solaris/Product
.

.
One or more locales have been added.

Remove the packages for the locale installed on your system using the localeadm
command.

The -r option and a locale identifies the locale that you want
to remove from the system. To remove the Central European region (ceu) from
your system, for example:

# localeadm -r ceu
locale/region name is ceu
